A central New Jersey elementary school science class has a
new pet after a lizard was discovered in a student’s salad after being
refrigerated for days.
Riverside Elementary School science teacher Mark Eastburn
said the 3-inch green anole lizard was found in a bundle of tatsoi greens last
week by a kindergartner.
The lizard had been cold and lifeless after being confined
in a refrigerator for days. The lizard has since been warmed and lives in a
cage in Eastburn’s class.
The lizard, dubbed “Green Fruit Loop,” came from Florida.
The tatsoi had been bought from Whole Earth Center in
Princeton.
A store produce manager says greens are cleaned as they’re
stocked and that the lizard must've been tucked away in a leaf.
